Description

2338 Monument Avenue | A Landmark of Georgian Grandeur in Richmond's Finest BlockEmpty heading
Set on one of Monument Avenue's most architecturally significant blocks, 2338 Monument Avenue stands as a proud and timeless expression of early 20th-century Georgian Revival architecture. Designed in 1909 by Claude K. Howell--lead architect at the renowned firm Scarborough & Howell--this exceptional residence was the first home built on the 2300 block and remains one of its most impressive.

Exuding the scale and elegance of an antebellum Georgian manor, the home spans nearly 6,000 square feet of finished space, with an additional 2,456 square feet in the lower level. Every detail has been masterfully conceived, from the finely layered plaster cornices and classical fireplace moldings in the grand entrance hall to the wide fanlight entry and generously proportioned windows that flood the space with light.

The dramatic staircase is a signature moment--designed not just for function but as a centerpiece, framed by columns and rivaling any found on the avenue. The result is an entrance that feels more like a grand salon than a simple foyer.

The home's proportions extend beyond the walls: set on an oversized city lot, the property includes a private garden to the side and rear--an uncommon luxury in the city--creating the feeling of a suburban estate in an urban setting.

Located on a block celebrated for its collection of homes by celebrated architects like William L. Bottomley, W. Duncan Lee, and Marcellus Wright Sr., this residence holds its own among Monument Avenue's finest. For over four decades, it has been lovingly held by the same family--ready now for its next chapter.

“I’ve represented some of Richmond’s most beautiful homes, but 2338 Monument has a presence that’s hard to match. It’s grand, perfectly proportioned, and set on one of the most architecturally important blocks in the city — the kind of home that reminds you why Monument Avenue is so special.”
